Many of the Apple Cider Vinegars that are found in health food shops and supermarkets have been pasteurised and filtered. This destroys and removes the ‘Mother’ a term for the ball of living enzymes that floats around in the apple cider vinegar as well as other nutrients, making it pretty much useless for anything other than a table condiment, also a lot of these vinegars are made from apples grown using harmful chemical fertilisers and pesticides.

It never needs refrigeration. You can also save some “mother” and transfer it to work in other natural vinegars. When you smell natural Apple Cider Vinegar, there’s a pungent odour and sometimes it’s so ripened it puckers your mouth and smarts your eyes. These are natural, good signs.

Our skin is naturally acidic and when these pH levels are out of balance, it can lead to breakouts, clogged pores, or itchy and irritated skin. Beauty blogs have been talking about how apple cider vinegar can be used as a skin toner, citing that its acid pH restores the skin’s acid mantle and improves the skin barrier function.

Some people use apple cider vinegar for acne. Although there is no substantive research on this correlation, people have reported seeing improvements in skin inflammation and breakouts. You can try it out by diluting a small amount of apple cider vinegar with water and rubbing it onto your T-zone area or other dry spots with a cotton ball to help prevent breakouts and minimize blemishes.

Varicose veins
Varicose veins are large, dilated veins that are commonly seen on the legs and can be associated with pain and discomfort. A study was performed to test the effects of topical apple cider vinegar application to treat varicose veins. The group of study subjects who received the apple cider vinegar application had a significant reduction in symptoms, including cramps, pain, itching, pigmentation and discomfort in the legs. The apple cider vinegar did not make the varicose veins disappear and only helped with symptoms.

On Hair
One of the largest components of apple cider vinegar is acetic acid, an acidic solution that can match the pH of hair (ranges from 4-5 pH). This allows you to cleanse the hair and scalp without upsetting its pH balance. There have also been claims stating that the application of apple cider vinegar can help seal and protect hair follicles, leading to less hair loss. To date, however, there has been no direct research on apple cider vinegar’s benefits for the hair. Putting apple cider vinegar on your locks has the potential to smooth and strengthen them.
